A festival procession vehicle carries a Ganesha murti seated under a multicolored fringed canopy. The deity wears an orange and red dhoti-like cloth, a silver crown, and an elaborate silver necklace, holding a bow-like sugarcane or rod. Garlands of red, white, yellow and purple flowers frame the figure within an ornate gold arch. Below sits a gilded elephant figure on a wooden platform with ropes and scattered petals. Behind stands a red building with a signboard in Kannada script, a tree and a banner. No people are visible in the scene.
